Psalm 46To the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of the sons of Korah, set to treble voices. A song.461GOD IS our Refuge and Strength [mighty and impenetrable to temptation], a very present and well-proved help in trouble.2Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change and though the mountains be shaken into the midst of the seas,3Though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling and tumult. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!4There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.5God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God will help her right early [at the dawn of the morning].6The nations raged, the kingdoms tottered and were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.7The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our Refuge (our Fortress and High Tower). Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!8Come, behold the works of the Lord, Who has wrought desolations and wonders in the earth.9He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow into pieces and snaps the spear in two; He burns the chariots in the fire.10Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth!11The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our Refuge (our High Tower and Stronghold). Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
